Login name = insecure, users did "telnet localhost 13326" "name DMname"
"add :0.0" and that was it :(
Password is bad, since others can come behind your back and see what you

the same LAN. The character list just is the most appropriate thing to
do..

Ok. Then the dm_file will look something like:
loginname:password:host:charname:flags_what_can_do
